2. While laying fold the knees to make a right angle and lift up slightly the chest towards them, as it is shown on the image. For more precise exercise you can watch a video, just search for knees up crunch.

3. The crisscross exercise will help you to move even bigger area of your abs. Don’t forget to give yourself a rest between every repetition.

4. Gather your feet and lift them up, so they can form a right angle with the rest of your body. Then lower the feet down, but not the whole way. This exercise if for the middle and bottom part of the abs.

5. It is time to move the side parts. Lay down in the showed on the image position, lift up the top part of the body and in the same time try to touch your left sole and then the right one. Repeat a couple of times.

6. And for final you can do flutter kicks. They are slightly harder than the other exercises, but the results are incredible. You must do kicks in the air and it is for the lower part of your abs.
